I´ve seen threads for almost all concerts on this tour, but not this one. Anybody going? I am - bought tickets to all DT shows in Spain next January. This is promising to be a great show - small city, small venue, and a chance at seeing them VERY close. Whilst poor attendance may be a downer, I prefer shows like that, where I don´t need to fight for a decent spot.
-
Surprised nobody else is planning to go to this one, seems a pretty intimate venue by DT's standards.
-
Yep...that´s the whole reason I chose to go, and to book the Meet & Greet for this exact venue as opposed to Madrid or Barcelona, which I expect to be packed.
-
So, who else is going for this show? 12 days to go!
-
Fukkin hell, I ran into Jordan in Pamplona! I was asking a policeman for directions and as soon as he started talkung I completely ignored him and screamed "Jordan!". He stopped by and we had a little chat. I asked him.about the issues last night and ge said "It should all be fixed for tonight". I mentioned I came all the way from Rio to see these 3 shows and he said "so you'll get to see a different thing tinight". But I'm not sure if he meant a different setlist or different because the issues are noe fixed...
We'll find out soon enough, right?
-
I hope for everyone's sake the kinks will be worked out.
-
Exited to see how/if they'll change the setlist for tonight.

I like this setlist but I'd like to see some changes.

I like this setlist but I'd like to see some changes.
I'd rather have them not change it at all, because I don't want some of the unexpected awesomeness of the current setlist to be changed for some stuff I'm not a big fan of :D

So, you want to play it safe, right? Probably a wise approach...
-
As I said before, its only a few hours from last nights show, maybe the SFAM/Awake anniversary setlist is the main set with sub-sets for shows that are near to one another. Maybe they assume that some people might attend both and change it up a bit?
-
According to twitter they are in the 15 minute intermission now

Already? Earlier show tonight?

Maybe they started 1:30h early to make up for last night :neverusethis:
-
I hope for some setlist change ! :eek

Probably the show has started at the scheduled time, which didn't happen yesterday.
-
I think it started at 2000 hrs approx local time.
-
Any reports of the setlist tonight?
-
What sucks is that if they keep The Shattered Fortress in the setlist, pretty much a guarantee they won't play Tuscany :(
-
It's already a guarantee they won't play it.
-
It's already a guarantee they won't play it.
Think so? Because they already have an epic in the set with IT?
-
No, because it has already been confirmed that there will be no song rotation in the set list.
-
No, because it has already been confirmed that there will be no song rotation in the set list.
Who said that ?
-
No, because it has already been confirmed that there will be no song rotation in the set list.
Ah...didn't know that. I wasn't sure if they were doing the Awake/SFAM anniversary thing in Europe only, like they did a few years back with I&W. Once they hit the states, the setlist changed.
-
No, because it has already been confirmed that there will be no song rotation in the set list.
Yeah at this point I'm mostly curious to see if the set order changes, like it did in Madrid last night. That could have simply been because of the technical difficulties, though.
-
Still no setlist ?
-
No, because it has already been confirmed that there will be no song rotation in the set list.

Yes, that was the only reason why.

No, it should be the same over here, too. At least, that is the plan at present.
-

I'm starting to think tthat tenere are no changes on the set....

Mine is a point of view...but I just wanna know who confirmed that there will no be rotating on the set...Petrucci ?
-

:lol This set should make for an interesting concert in Boston. I'm very curious to see where the choir is used.
-

I'm not sure this will be the setlist in Boston. I kind of expect the general setlist to be tweaked anyway between the Euro an US dates, no?

Weymolith (who got it directly from the band).

Boston may end up being an exception to the rule. I don't know that for a fact, but since they are doing something out of the ordinary for that show as it is, it would not surprise me if they modified the set list somewhat.

No.
-
Ok, well good then.
Seriously I was listening to DT12 on the way to work this morning really thinking about how the Boston setlist will be constructed.
-
Here's to hoping that they add Surrender to Reason by the time they comes to the states! "Reeeeeestlesssssss, Annnnnnngellllllls" :metal
-
:facepalm:
Okay, yeah. Actually, they ARE going to change their set lists. By the time they come to the states, they hope to be playing 4 hour sets that rotate every officially released track in their catalog, plus b-sides, plus Majesty songs. And they're going to take fan polls each night before each show to figure out which ones get the most votes. :lol

You realize this thread will now become about explaining multple times you were being sarcastic there? :lol
-
Just came back to the hotel. Same setlist as the one in Porto. Most technical issues fixed, except for the intro video which was not shown tonight.
The only down side today is that I had the meet & greet, and the guys were not in the mood at all...totau detached and wanting it to be over asap. I gave two CDs from bands from friends of mine - one to Petrucci and another one to Mangini, which they actually left at the tabe!
Three other people in the meet & greet were of the same opinion: one guy brought drum sticks he picked from Mangini when he played in Spain with Vai years ago to be autographed, but he acted like he couldn't give a f#%&&ck...maybe they were tense about getting the gear right, or upset about something else, but hey, it's not our fault!!

So what time will the shows start?
-
The setlist didn't change?
-
Nope.
-

To be fair, I don't think you should have done this, they won't care about your friends' bands, and even if they did, a meet and greet just before an unusually stressful show wasn't the time to try and push them.
-
Nope.
I had no idea about that. I wish bosk someone would have said something.

Yeah, but leaving it at the table!?!??? That's rude, to say the least. And like I said, other people fely dismissed as well. At least now I have both Cds of this lineup autographef by the whole band.
-
Fair enough Rodrigo. Hopefully the band will put Madrid's events behind them and move on from it. You're correct that it's not your - or the other fans' - fault what happened. I guess I'm just sympathizing equally with DT, they probably put so much work into their preparations for the show and what happened yesterday must have been soul-destroying. It's understandable if they were really on edge tonight. They're some of rock's good guys, they'll be ok soon enough. Glad you got your albums signed.
-
How was the show? Why couldn't the opening video be played? How many people were in the concert?

PSH...who are they, Marillion?! :tup

It would be great if they rotated the set...ya know, put JM stage left and JP stage right. It would be easier on them than changing what songs they play every night.

I knew there was a good reason why I planned to see the whole North American leg of the tour! ;)
-
No worries, Dave.
Aside from that, to say that they NAILED IT is an understatement. Boy, were they on fire tonight! James sounded awesome on IT, much better than in Porto. I believe theu're getting closer to their comfory zone with the setlist, abd tomorrow in Barcelona is looking much more promissing!

I don't want to be the party pooper, but that would actually be a unitary, rather than ortogonal transformation. The xy reflection which would swap JP with JM on stage is clearly not connected to the identical transformation via the variation of an infinitesimal parameter, hence is not a member of SO(2) and consequentially not a rotation at all. :p
Still, post of the month candidate, man :lol

Perhaps he was referring to a 3-dimensional line reflection about the horizontal axis that perpendicularly bisects the line segment connecting JP and JM, which would have the effect of swapping their places while simultaneously corresponding to the member of SO(3) indicating a 180 degree rotation about the same axis.
-
Maybe they could swap JP and JR's places only for The Mirror, huh? Geddit?

If it was a reflection on stage, they would suddenly be playing left-handed. :millahhhh
-
If you rotated the set, wouldn't we be seeing their backs? I mean, that'd be cool to watch MM's playing and all, but who'd want to look at their backs all night?!
-Marc.
-
What if they vertically rotate it and have the stage hanging from the roof, making them play upside down for 3 hours? That'd be real cool, and i'm sure they'd shake the massive rush of blood to their heads eventually.
-
I DON'T KNOW WHATS GOING ON!!!

Apparently they played a different set tonight

The current setlist is solid enough to not require any changes, even in North America. It's that good.
However, I expect the Boston show to have a few tweaks and surprises to accommodate the strings and choir.
Also, it should be noted that the band sometimes changes its mind as the tour progresses. Example: Great Debate last tour just didn't work for them so they switched it out. Anything is possible.

I was thinking of mentioning that. Something like that is possible, although it seems like every song is getting a great crowd reaction from the videos I've seen so far, so that might not be an issue.
-
Greeeeat to hear that! :caffeine: I'm so stoked for tuesday!
There's a little chance that on Tuesday they could make an exception to the static setlist, and swap some song with the ine they OUGHT to play over there (and they didn't ever). Just a thought....
-
I'm rather sure they won't. Had it been a six minute song maaaayb they could have stuck it somewhere, but relearning and reharsing TCOT just for one night doesn't sound likely at all.
-

This.

I totally agree. I actually hope they keep it the same. It's a much better setlist than the last tour and much better than I could have ever hoped for. No complaints here at all.

Yeah, I'm noticing some vast improvements already. Hope he manages to get rid of some of the sour notes in the future.
-

I think it's much better than the first night. He's hitting all the right notes, it's just a really difficult part to annunciate while straining your voice at those higher pitches.. I think we'll get close to studio at least a couple of playings this year. ;)
Also, I think the James' octave shift at the end of SDV will be really epic once we get the defininitive performance of it.
-
I think he did a good job tonight in Barcelona on IT. On SDV he came in early on the high octave part, but that was the only mistake I noticed on the whole show. And the videos are all working now!
-
To be honest I'm more concerned with JP's performance. He's straight missing a lot of stuff lately (bends, slides, etc). I wonder if it was super cold that night inside. That'd definitely affect all of their performances. That said, the Majesty sounds wonderful on the video of Finally Free from this night!
Does it also seem to anyone that they are having some pretty serious timing issues? They must still be adjusting to or having problems with playing to a track. Like for example, every time they come back into IT after the orchestra break the bass is usually late and you can hear the backing track. Hopefully they get the tech difficulties ironed out and into their comfort zones soon!
They will all likely get better though so not that big of a deal. :)
-
He didn't hit the F during The Pursuit of Truth, but the whole passage sounded much better than Porto. I have faith that he can improve and do that part justice, even if it's slightly altered from the studio version.
-
He will get it. I can tell. He's almost there. :metal

All of this. I think JP is the one with the biggest issues at the moment.
-
Maybe Petrucci is a bit rusty in a few spots, but I could barely notice it live...I for one am glad he doesn't play all the solos note for note exactly like the record - it adds spontaneity to a show that is rehearsed and choreographed to exhaustion.

Yeah, this is miles better than the first night. Considering this is the second time they have played it, it's actually amazing how much it's improved over the first night.
-
Stop worrying about JP! I wouldn't be concerned about anything, the percentage of mistakes vs top notch playing is completely minimal, he'll be fine. Worrying about JPs guitar playing geez I feel like I'm in some kinda alternate reality. ::)

They should just get one of those cardboard cutouts of JM.
